sons who were injured in the accident
on the Atlantic and Pacific Railway
by the train going through the burned
bridge on Saturday night were brought
in here last night and everything that
could be thought of was done for their
comfort. Engineer Hodgdon died early
yesterday. His bravery and presence Of
mind in applying the air-brakes and re-
versing his engine saved many lives.
The company had physicians on hand
soon after, and the injured are all doing
well. Express Messenger Thompson.
although injured, worked at the wreck
and saved nearly all the treasure, about
$780, 600. The balance of the express
was total loss. All the east.bound
mail, except four paper pouches, was
rescued. Only two or three trunks were
saved of all the baggage. The remains
of Brakeman Gilbert were picked up and
would not fill candle.box. The fire
man escaped without scratch. Moth
ing remains of the engine and three cars
but mass of old iron. The train did
not take fire till about twenty minutes
after it ran of the bridge, and the flames
came from one of the lamps which ex.
ploded in the mail-car. How the br dge
caught fire no one seems to know. A
track was built around the wreck aud
trains are now running on time. The
wrecked train consisted of seven cars,
containing about seventy passengers.

An Objectionable Clause.

WASHINGTON, February 2S.-The Sen
ate amendments to the Pacific Railway
Investigation resolution, with single
exception, are understood to be accepta-
BILE to the House Committee on Pacific
Railways. but the clause providing for
the appointment of Commissioners is re-.
garded as so Objectionable that confer
ence is necessary. The President has
iutimated that if the words "by and with
the advice and consent of the Senate"
remain in the resolution he cannot ap-
point Commissioners before the assem-
bling of the next Congress. His reason
for SO holding is that according to the
decisions of the Attorney.General the
resolution does not create such an office
as can be filled when Congress is not in
session.

NEW YORK, February 2S.-The Stars
London correspondent cables: The out
lool in the East grows hourly more
threatening. The Times publishes a
letter from correspondent at Vienna to
the effect that the relations of Russia
with Germany and Austria are severely
strained, and, what is more important,
no further attempts are made in official
circles to conceal the fact. Dispatches
from other sources confirm this. The
Herald's special correspondents in the
Levant have recently been making close
inquiries into Russian armaments, and
declare that the Russian force now con.
centrated in Central Asia, equipped foi
active service in the field, numbers fully
300, 900 men of all arms. OF these
three divisions of $4,000 to 60, 900 men
each, are ready to march on Afghauistau
at few days notice. Reports have
been received of plenty of Russian
troops who are massed in Russian Po.
land, respecting which it has been diff.
cult to obtain information. These re.
ports prove that Russia has made enor'
nous preparations for offensive war.
Russian Poland is described as one vas,

| HERKIMER. N. Y, February 2S.-
Roxalana Druse, who murdered her hus-
oand, George Druse, in December, 1884,
was hanged for the crime at noon to-
day. Alter services last evening, Mrs.
Druse remained up until about ll:3O.
Deputy Sheriff Manion, with Mr.. and
Mrs. Waterman, were with her. Tho
death watch induced her to lie down.
and she slept about four hours Of quiet
sleep. She awakened with a start. aud
upon arising began to write letters a.
calmly as she had at any time
during her incarceration. In one of
these she thanked the Sheriff for his
kindness to her, and asked that her
body might be given to her sister for
Christian burial. After writing she lay
down again and fell into doze. She
was attacked with hysteria in q violent
form, and it required considerable effort
dpon the part Of the watchers to calm
her. During the night she ale one of the
heartiest meals she had eaten since she
was prisoner. She had about two
hours rest after 4 A. NJ, but did not
sleep soundly at any time. Rev. DR..
Powell visited Mrs. Druse about 8, and
did all in his power to calm her and pre-
pare her for the awful moment. The
execution was witnessed by twenty five
persons, including the officers
Just before going to the scaffold Mrs.
Druse made affidavit declaring that her
daughter Mary, now confined in Onon-
daga penitentiary, had nothing whatever
to do with the killing of her father.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Druse made
confession to Dr. Powell, her spiritual
adviser, in which she declared that
Charles Gates had instigated her to COM
NIT the murder, and that he provided
her with the revolver. She declared
that after she fired the first shot Gates
fired the three succeeding shots from q
window. She confessed to having cut
up her husbands body. According to
her statement Gates took the fragments
away and burned them. She claimed
that she killed Druse because he had
treated her cruelty and brutally.
At ii: :42 Mrs. Druse and DR.. Powell
knelt on the floor Of the scaffold under
the rope. Mrs. Druse held her daugh-
ter's bonnet in her hand, and closed her
eyes while DIR. Powell offered prayer.
The prisoner was dressed in black
cashmere dress, with laced neck and
sleeves. She wore o small shawl over
her shoulders. The woman maintained
her composure on the sc.ffold until the
cap was drawn over her face. Then she
began to moan, and finally screamed 30
loudly that the noise could be heard in
the street adjoining the jail. After the
trap was sprung and she had fallen, she
made but one convulsive movement.

lost its threatening attitude, compelling
Germany to provide for every
